So we can pay for more time? How do we go about doing that?

I've never played any Diablo game. What am I missing? Does it have online multiplayer? Should I get it in 45 minutes knowing absolutely nothing about it?

I would say yes. I never played it either but played the Diablo 3 beta... It was pretty good. Something I will be picking up sometime soon to play the full game.

Top-down dungeon crawler with LOTS of loot. 4 player co-op. It's quite addicting.

If I buy this in ten minutes, and it stays in the condom for more than a week, I will slap you.

:stonecold:

I'll take the blame if you don't like it, but not for you not opening it.

I live dungeon crawlers and I think it's a pretty mundane game. I buy almost everything and I'm waiting a while to buy the PS4 version. I think it's overhyped to hell.

What did the five fingers say to the Swarley?

Ok...if the man who buys every game ever is going to wait to get this, that's not a good sign. We'll see in a few minutes when I get to the store.
I've been playing a ton of Skyrim lately, so I don't really need a game that sounds similar to it.

 

[Twigg4075]

It's nothing like Skyrim.

 

[Twigg4075]

Keep in mind that I got it for PS3, so I'm less inclined to buy it again. But with all the hype the series and the game got in particular, I wasn't impressed.

It's a fine game. I loved Diablo at the time, and Diablo 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. It controls very well, somewhat surprisingly, and it will definitely fulfill your loot lust if you have it. It has a pretty dumb, not great story, so it's not really going to be your driving force.

I'm curious what difficulty level you played it on Twigg? I was bored with it as well, playing it on Hard, and then I heard that the difficulty in the game is kind of fucked up. I nearly beat Hard without dying. So I'm guessing it might be a bit more exciting at the higher difficulties.

Anyway, it's a game for a certain type of person. On one hand, you won't have the bias that I did coming from Diablo 2, but on the other, it sounds like even people here without that bias aren't in love with it. On the other, other hand: there are a ton of people I know that do like it...even love it.

If you want to know if you like the game type, you could always try out Torchlight. I don't know about PS3, but I know it's on 360 and is probably $10 or $15.

people found out how to get access to M15 already, im playing it lol..

I would go as far as to say the story is down right dreadful. It's like it was an afterthought of an afterthought.
The wife and I are playing on Normal I think. There have been a few areas that were aggravating but it's mostly been a breeze.

I don't want to call it dreadful, just because it is completely out of the way. If it had overly long cutscenes or something, I'd care, but as it stands, it's not good but it's not a bother either. It's just the reason to play, by far (not that it really ever is in these games).

 

[Twigg4075]

Yeah, those games are all about loot and mashing attacks on monsters.
My wife and I literally just skip all the dialogue because the 'story' was such a waste.

imo Path of Exile and Torchlight 2, which are essentially the same thing as D3 only better...are both way better games. Torchlight 2 has a phenominal amount of variety and all the loot, coop and mods you could want. Path of Exile is totally free and even if you paid $50 to play it, it would be better than D3

 

[Maynard]

is anyone playing Divinity Original Sin? this is the first ever Turn Based Combat game that i have been able to enjoy.
